Caitlyn,

We are very grateful that you were a part of Madison & Mitch’s wedding day on June 24, 2017!

Thank you for your patience and suggestions on how to find the perfect wedding/bridesmaids dresses for Madison’s wedding! We had read GREAT reviews online about YOU before we made Madison’s appointment and I’m so glad we did! Because of YOU our experience at Bride’s & Weddings was an amazing one! So hard to find that one and only dress that you LOVE especially in one stop! Fortunately the way you helped Madison come to her discussion we were able to do this in one outing! Bridesmaids dresses too!

Madison looked beautiful, as did the bridesmaids! The shoes she ended up getting the day of the fitting were gorgeous and comfortable!

We will continue to share your name and Brides & Weddings business with others!

Thanks for going above & beyond in making this an extra special day for Madison & Mitch!

With Much Appreciation,
Michele Olesen & Madison Wantock

I had gone to 4 different bridal boutiques and none of the others were able to give me what I wanted except Brides and Weddings. They were amazing. They asked me why I didn't love previous dresses I tried on. We looked and picked out dresses to try on and they so many to choose from that it almost made it difficult to choose. The staff were wonderful and they didn't make it seem like you were just another sale.

Brides and Weddings helped me find my DREAM dress. I was in love with it from Day 1 and knew it was the one. The service was great, prices reasonable, and selection was outstanding. Far better than many of the other stores I had visited in the surrounding areas.

I had such a great experience finding THE perfect dress at Brides and Weddings! The staff was so helpful, and they were not pushy at all, which was definitely a huge plus. In addition, the store had such a large selection of bridal and bridesmaid gowns to choose from. Jamie and Lisa were so awesome to work with. I would highly recommend looking at Brides and Weddings in Manchester if you are still searching for your dress. You won't be disappointed.

I went to Brides and Weddings March 1, 2014. Becky was the person helping me and she was phenomenal. She was super helpful and very easy to work with. I ended up going with a dress that was on sale because it had been discontinued and Becky was wonderful about letting me know what kind of alterations I could have done since it was the only dress they had. I would definitely recommend Brides and Weddings!
